I recently entered prints in the Mid-East States competition through Professional Photographers of America and came home with TWO blue ribbons! These prints will now go to National competition and will then compete for either Loan prints or General Collection prints. I was so excited I cried. These merit prints aren't easy to come by and I never dreamed of one, let alone TWO. The images are from a fall trip to Yosemite, where I went to the spot that Ansel Adams shot his first image and did the same image in Technicolor, thus the title, "Yosemite in Technicolor." The second image was from our trip to Maui last winter when we were hiking inside the volcano. It was from a very colorful part of the volcano, rounding a cinder cone named Pele's Paintpot. An awesome experience and awesome print.
I'll have photos soon of me with the ear to ear grin with the ribbons, but until then, here's the winning images to enjoy!
